I've been trying out several userscripts for Kbin recently, which have made the website way more enjoyable than it already was. I wanted to share them with my fellow Kbin users.
To use these scripts, you'll need an userscript manager. I use Greasemonkey on my PC on Firefox myself, and Tampermonkey on my phone. You can find recommendations for your browser on the Greasy Fork home page.
These are the scripts that I've been using:
There are many more interesting scripts on Greasy Fork, like this alternative sidebar.
After installing scripts you like, I recommend checking the settings of the scripts and change the settings to whatever you prefer. The settings can often both be found under the little cog icon on the right side of the page, just like the official Kbin settings.
Feel free to share you favorite userscripts or add-ons and enjoy!
E: @minnieo, the creator of Kbin Kibby Avatars, just shared this very nice userstyle for the side bar to make it look even better.
E2: The author of both Kbin Usability Pack and the Kbin Subscription Panel, @Perry, just fixed the issue I was having with the "alternative sidebar". It is working as intended now and it has some very nice extra functionality and settings. It also works perfectly on mobile. I would recommend trying out both and see which one you like most.
I wasn't expecting that the author would show up here, hi!
The problem I run into is that it won't load the list of magazines. It just says
Failed to load subscriptionswith a spinning load-icon on top. Your sidebar looks really good on the screenshots, though!Your comment made me re-enable your script again to investigate the issue a bit deeper. I opened up the console and it seems like the URL that is used to request the list is not valid:

Thank you for reaching out and looking into it. I really appreciate that!
Oh, it seems like there might actually have been a Firefox issue. Or rather, me apparently not knowing how to use fetch() properly.
See if it works better now: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469139-kbin-subscriptions-panel
You can click on the cog icon in the upper right to see if you have the current version installed (2.6)
That fixed the issue, it's working perfectly now! I really like the extra functionality of it!
I will edit the post and add it to the recommendations. Thank you very much for the quick response!
